Old Madam Yan choked and was two of them stopped talking and continued walking towards Nanyuan Restaurant. Yan Funing was sitting next to her mother. She raised her eyes and glanced casually. When she saw her grandfather and step-grandmother coming over, she stood up and left. "Grandfather is here?" The shout was sweet and crisp. The old Duke hummed, stopped, and looked angry. Old Madam Yan stopped and looked at the old Duke's face, thinking, after all, they are husband and wife, the old man is still on her side. At this time, Yan Funing walked quickly to the old Duke, tilted her head to see that his face was becoming more and more angry, and boldly pulled his gray beard. "Grandfather is angry?" Seeing this, Old Madam Yan sneered in her heart. The little girl raised in the countryside is really not good at reading people's expressions and behaves in a disrespectful manner.

Today she whispered a lot of things in the old duke's ears. The old duke must be heartbroken about Yan'er's experience, which is why he came to Nanyuan with her. She said that one was her granddaughter whom she had raised for more than 16 years, even though they were not related by blood. There is always family love. The other one is my granddaughter. After all, they have only known each other for a short time. How can there be such a deep affection between them? What's more, the old man seldom intervenes in the affairs of the mansion. He only intervenes when she asks him to. It will be the same today. Just when Old Madam Yan was about to see how the old Duke would get angry—— All I heard was his deep voice: "The girl left the capital for a month, and when she came back, she was nowhere to be seen except on the day of the imperial edict. Such a little girl is really heartless and ungrateful." While speaking, he lowered his head to make it easier for Yan Funing to pull his beard. Yan Funing helped him straighten his angry beard and asked playfully, "Does Grandfather miss the little girl?" "Hmph." The old Duke snorted, raising his eyebrows. "It's really strange. I don't miss anyone. The little girl is not at home, and I miss her very much. I came to see you, to see if you have lost any hair." Yan Funing chuckled, held her grandfather's arm affectionately, and led him to the dining room. "My dear grandfather, my dear grandpa, the little girl misses you so much. I have been busy these few days since you came back." "Besides, grandpa took Tenglong Xiaohu away, and he is like a dragon that can only be seen from the head but not the tail. It is really difficult for your granddaughter to see you." "We are both busy, grandparents and grandchildren." The old Duke laughed loudly: "That's the truth." Old Madam Yan was stunned that the situation she expected did not occur. Originally, I thought that the old Duke went to the Queen Mother to plead to cancel the arranged marriage, and that it was the Duke and his wife who asked the old man, but now it seems that it was because of the deep love between the grandparents and grandchildren, and I guess it was Yan Funing who asked for it herself. Is this blood relationship really that magical? They were clearly a grandparent and grandchild who had only been together for a short time, but at this moment it was as if his granddaughter had been raised by his side since childhood.

Everyone in the dining room was surprised when they saw this. Especially Yan Honghou, Yan Yingying and Yan Bojian, you should know that their grandfather has never treated them like this. Yuan Lang jumped off the chair, grabbed the old Duke's other hand, and called in a baby voice, "Great-grandfather." Everyone stood up to greet him. Yan Cheng asked, "Did father have breakfast?" "I have." After a slight pause, the old Duke said, "You can eat some more." He looked at Madam Yan, "She won't eat it." Old Madam Yan was so angry that she snorted and turned away. "Father, please take a seat." Hong Qingyi raised her hand to invite him, and quickly ordered the servants to bring more bowls and chopsticks. Everyone tacitly agreed not to mention Yan Yan'er's matter, and the breakfast took a quarter of an hour longer than usual. When everyone arrived at the East Garden, almost everyone from the second and third rooms were there, except the fourth and fifth young masters. Madam Yan sat in the main seat. She waited until the old Duke sat next to her before she spoke: "Yan'er said that the man was the young master of the Yan family." She looked around and said, "Since he is the young master of the Yan family, Yan'er's innocence has been destroyed, and he should give an explanation." Yan Yingying said, "Then my husband has been ruled out as a suspect. In this case, Yuan Yi, you should go to the government office." Yuan Yi had just sat down when he heard the words and bowed to the old Duke: "Grandfather Yue, your grandson-in-law will go first." "Go ahead." The old duke waved his hand. Yuan Yi bowed to Yan Cheng and Hong Qingyi and said goodbye, then left the East Garden. Madam Yan said: "Yuan Yi's suspicion has been eliminated, but Hong Hou and Bo Jian's suspicions remain the same." Seeing that the old woman was still holding on to their Nanyuan, Hong Qingyi looked at her eldest son. Yan Honghou gave his mother a smile, signaling her to relax. Early yesterday night, one of the men he sent out came back and reported that no findings had been made so far. He ordered them to continue guarding. In the second half of the night, a man broke into Yan Yan'er's yard in Dongyuan. Yan Yan'er's door was not bolted, so the man walked in directly. Less than a quarter of an hour later, just as the man was about to perform Qinggong, he was caught and locked up in the firewood room of Nanyuan. Early in the morning, his people came to report the process. He also said that he would go to the trial in person after breakfast. It seems that at this moment, the person will be brought here for interrogation. At this time, Madam Yan spoke again: "Yan'er has a lot of contact with the boss, Honghou, just accept it." "Your wife has not gotten pregnant yet, it's time to find you a concubine."

"Yan'er has been by my side since she was young, so I know her inside out." These words were spoken with great earnestness, as if they were from a grandmother who was truly concerned about her grandson. "Knowing everything? People's hearts are hidden in their stomachs." Hong Qingyi said, "Mother, are you sure that the man is Hong Hou?" "How can you be sure?" Old Madam Yan shouted. Yan Funing spoke slowly and calmly: "Grandmother likes Yan Yan'er. The marriage between me and Prince Chi has been annulled. She has no hope of marrying Prince Chi, so she has set her sights on my brothers." "She couldn't get close to her second brother, so she turned to her eldest brother." "My eldest brother is the prince, and he will naturally be a good candidate to inherit the title in the future." "Not only my grandmother, but also my second uncle and second aunt, my third uncle and third aunt, my fourth brother and fourth sister-in-law, my fifth brother and fifth sister-in-law, and even my third and fourth sisters. You all thought that my eldest sister-in-law couldn't have children." "Plus Yan Yan'er's recent deliberate behavior makes you think that my eldest brother is the most suspicious." "Yes and no?" The soft voice contained a refreshing tone. Second Madam Zhang smiled and said, "Fu Ning, your eldest sister-in-law didn't give birth to a boy or girl, and your eldest brother did have a lot of contact with Yan'er. The facts are there, so why are you, as a younger sister, so anxious?" "I don't allow you to casually accuse my eldest brother. My eldest sister-in-law is gentle and virtuous. She will definitely be a good mother in the future." Yan Funing smiled, "I would like to ask, why is Second Aunt so anxious to marry her son off so early?" Zhang's face turned cold: "How uneducated." Hong Qingyi said in a deep voice: "My daughter, it is not your turn to comment." Yan Funing continued, "The man who had an affair with Yan Yan'er might really be the son of the Yan family, but he definitely could not be my three brothers." The Fourth Young Master's wife said in a sharp voice: "Second sister, be careful what you say. Do you mean that my husband and Fifth Brother are suspected?" Yan Funing smiled and said, "Fourth sister-in-law, don't you see who is not here now?" The Fifth Young Master's wife said, "My husband went out early in the morning to do some work, unlike some people who are idle." means something. Yan Funing heard it. (End of this chapter)
